Hi, I am working on OMAP1510 board. I need to interface external SDRAM with DSP(C55x), without using ARM. I tried using EMIF configuration manager in DSP BIOS cdb file but could not succeed. Shall I need to do anything else after inserting EMIF configuration in cdb file?

Hi all, I have a 5510 connected to an external device over the EMIF as asynchronous memory, and I want to DMA from internal RAM to this device. I also want to run my CPU at full speed (200MHz), which gives a CPU cycle of 5ns. However, the timing constraints when writing to my external device require me to configure a minimum hold period of 70ns before I can re-assert the write s...

Scottie- > I have a USB device hooked off my 5510s EMIF, and can use it quite > happily using asynchronous mode on both DSP and USB device. Small problem at this point... USB should be connected to either a) McBSP directly or b) McBSP via small glue logic. For example, use a small CPLD or one of Lattice's cool new small FPGAs with built-in config RAM, connect 8-bit parallel to USB device

Hi All, I have a USB device hooked off my 5510s EMIF, and can use it quite happily using asynchronous mode on both DSP and USB device. However, when the USB device runs in asynchronous mode it is not capable of reaching the high USB2 bandwidth figures I require. To achieve this, I need to run the DSP device in synchronous mode. Initially I thought, no problem, I'll just run the 5510...

My guess would be you could ask the TI hotline for a document. They tend to provide such "hands on measurement" docs, like EMIF throughput, if you can demonstrate you need it and the in

Hello all, I'm looking to interface SDRAM to the 5502. I've been designing embedded systems for 25 years, but unfortunately (or perhaps, fortunately :)) have never used any type of DRAM. My question is this: Is it possible to manually "bank" SDRAM devices like you can with SRAMs? The 5502 EMIF spec (spru621f) states that 256-Mbit is the largest device that can be used. Can I use, say, ...

All, I'm working with Alex on this project. We've initilized the SDRAM registers according to the datasheet and to reference designs, and still nothing. What seems to happen is if you write a value to odd memory locations, the value sticks and you can read it back. But, ALL odd memory locations show the same value. This is with the chip in CE1 (which does seem to drop). The chip
